 'As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him'
(Colossians 2:6).

Every single person has the opportunity to accept Christ as their personal Saviour from sin. It is Christ who came down from heaven and die for us so we might have eternal life. In order for us walk worthy of Christ we must abide and rest in him, as we walk in spirit and truth.  We need to submit to the leading of the Holy Spirit in our lives willingly and purposefully, acknowledging that we are in need of Christ. All who trusted in Christ for their salvation should walk in His ways and follow his will and not ours. As believers we ought to receive Christ Jesus as Lord and are admonished to continue to live our lives in Him. What a difference it would make if all  would accept Christ in faith and abide in him! Jesus would sooner make his appearance, so we could spend eternity with him. Every believer who does accept Christ in faith must live and think by faith and our walk with God will certainly be pleasing to Him. We know that we ought to live by faith and not by sight, because our salvation is based on Christ alone and what He has done, not by our own works. Let us study and trust in the living Word of God, that we may not be taken in by deceptive arguments about the Saviour. But that we may walk worthy of Christ and be identified with God through our faith in Christ. Let us seek daily the blessed assurance of our salvation as we come to Christ by faith, trusting in the grace and mercy of God. Let us also seek steadfastness in Christ by our faith in him. As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him.

Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

 Devotional 'The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed' (Psalm 28:8). The Lord our God is the glory of our strength, and in His name we shall rejoice all the day. The Lord is our strength, and the saving strength of His anointed. It is through Christ our anointed that all our blessings come to us. Here we see David, who is a type of our Lord Jesus, praising God. What about you? Christ had done much for us and has achieved full salvation for us, therefore, praise Him! We, like Israel are encouraged that the Lord is our Strength and salvation. When we seek to be in a  relationship with God, He will protect us from our enemies and save us from the crutches of Satan. Just as how Satan attempts to destroy Christ many times, whilst he was on earth, God  saved him and will do the same for us. Christ died to save us all, but it is those who trust Him and have a saving relationship with him that will spend eternity with. He is our High Priest, and J...

 'I protest by your rejoicing  which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily' (1 Corinthians 15:31). Christ our Lord came and died for each and everyone to save us from the bondage of sin. He lived on this earth, ministered to the needs of all who He encountered; He was crucified, and resurrected and is now interceding for us, as our High Priest in Heaven. What if there was no resurrection? What would be the implications for God's people? The preaching of the gospel would be a lie, our faith would be worthless and we would all have remained in our sin. Paul is saying, there would be no cause to his dying daily, or for any one who believed and accept Jesus as their personal Saviour to die daily. Paul was expecting death at any time for Christ's sake. He was constantly in peril of his life, he encountered extreme sufferings and was beset with death. He was willing to die at anytime and in any way for Christ's sake. He did not count his life dear unto himself, but...

 'The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing' (Zephaniah 3 17). What an amazing and wonderful God we serve, who is mighty to save. The Lord our God is with us and is mighty to save. He will take great delight in us and will quiet us with his love, and also rejoice over us with singing. We didn't have to do anything for God to love us, he did because he created us and we are His. He created us and loves us just as we are. Even when we did not deserve it, the Lord took delight in us. What an awesome God! He is present in the midst of us, loving and caring for us. He protects and defend us; died to save us from sin, so we can have life and have it more abundant. He is mighty to save us from fears; our enemies and the bondage of sin and death. We all need a Saviour, Christ the Lord, who is the cure for our problems and the antidote to sin. Christ has already won ...
